Marcus is having one hell of a game.

18 points on 10 shots.

I'm liking Tolliver's game.
He's playing within the offense, setting good picks, shooting well. His defense is not bad in this game either.
If he keeps this up, it will be very nice.

Suns' last 6 field goals have all been from downtown. 14/28 from long range.

Our execution isn't any better on the other end. 21 turnovers, sheesh.

Why are the starters (minus Plumlee) all back in the game when it's the bench that has kept us in it the whole game?

Please put Len back in.

Didn't know if I'd have any anger left over after last night's game. Turns out I had a spare tank.

The Suns do not look like a top eight team in the West, I must say.

Alex Len was +15 tonight and got pulled when it mattered most.

Gerald Green was +7 and got benched in favor of bringing Bledose back into the game, who clearly didn't have it tonight.

Coach lost this game.

Half of the time they do. The other half they look like a top eight team in the East.

Agreed. Some bizarre substitutions all throughout the 4th quarter.

two things jump out at me - 22 turnovers and 35 3-point attempts vs. 9 free throw attempts.

you want a recipe for struggling offensively, that's a good start.
